Dunkin’ Donuts first location in CA, located at 12th and Wilshire in Santa Monica, California. What a treat every time I hit New York or Florida I have to stop by for some French Vanilla Coffee and a couple of my favorite frosting filled powdered donuts or dozen assorted munchkins (donut holes). Now I can pop in and enjoy DD’s after my morning run to the pier.

Dunkin’ Brands Group, Inc. based in Massachusetts also has Baskin-Robbins (7,300 shops), Dunkin’ Donuts nearly 11,000 locations in 33 countries. In New York City there are more Dunkin’ Donuts than Starbucks, it is a company with a big following of loyal consumers. I like a bit of variety when I drink my morning coffee, my plans are to add DD’s into my mix of Starbucks, Intelligentsia, Peet’s, Coffee Bean, Krispy Kreme… and all my secret mom and pop coffee shops I love to go to.

This is the first of a few hundred Dunkin’ Donuts that will open in the next few years. “I’m at Dunkin’ Donuts do you want me to pick you up something” yes it’s time to pop in to Dunkin Donuts and find out what your favorites are. If it’s your first time may I recommend the hot French Vanilla Coffee and any donut they have mastered both.

The Family Añejo embodies the full expression of the Santoyo values, traditions, and centuries of heritage, which have gone into the making of this tequila. Prepared only in small batches with the utmost care this tequila is aged for at least 2 years, achieving the classification of “Añejo.” It’s deep copper hues enthrall the eye, while the nose is pleasured by notes of caramel, almond and vanilla. On the palette, you find mild citrus opening notes leading in to butterscotch caramel and vanilla finishing. So smooth, sweet and it is organic. If you like these tasting notes visit Tequila of the Month each month as new tequila is featured.Santoyo Grand Leyenda Anejo Tequila
